The money would make it 18 million for Alcacer if they buy Munir but that's just the nuances of the deal. A deal, incidentally, that makes very little sense for any of those involved - other than Lim & Valencia.
Paco played more than 2400 minutes last year while Munir a third of that so the player that played more will come here to play less while the player here who was playing less is going there to play more. On the surface that looks good for Munir except he's going from the best team on the planet to one of the worst, moreover his reward for advancing so quickly through the club's cantera and developing with the first team is to be sold. It boggles the mind.
Then there's the financials of it. We needed a wide player more than a backup striker and saw it again how rarely the team could get behind the Bilbao defense - a Nolito, for example. Yet, we buy a young talent in Alcacer for 30 million when Nolito was 18 million. Then, we sell Munir for as little as 12 million when we saw RM dump Jese for triple that - boggles the mind. This is also to say nothing about how hard it will be for Paco to integrate into this squad this late into the transfer window, having missed the pre-season and will only ever see minor minutes in principle.
You could make a case if this was a veteran who had either a good chance to see regular minutes from the off or someone who was going to produce even with irregular appearances...say like, Nolito.
There's nothing about this deal I like
